Joseph Gordon-Levitt
and Brady Corbet star as two young
men haunted by similar events from their past, though the effects manifest
themselves in very different ways, in this powerful drama from independent Gregg Araki. In the summer of 1981,
Brian and Neil are both eight years old and playing on the same little league
baseball team in a small Kansas town. One day, after a game, Brian blacks out
after getting caught in a rainstorm, and five hours later he finds himself
sitting in his basement with his nose bleeding and no memory of what happened
to him. Over the years, the event — particularly the missing five hours — weigh
heavily on his mind, and he becomes convinced that he was kidnapped by space
aliens. Neil is contacted by Brian, who after seeing one of their team photos from
their days in little league suspects he might have some clues as to what
happened to him in 1981. (USA, 2004, 107
